Our dogs are more than pets—they’re members of our families. The names we pick for them reflect our personalities, interests, and obsessions.
Rover.com—the world’s largest network of pet sitters and dog walkers, and a leading dog name expert—dug into the data on Boston dogs to determine which names are leading the pack, and which are in the dog house.
